What you would do in such case is renaming debian/*.install into
something like install.in, then you would do a sed or something
similar so that you can replace a variable by the content depending
on the return of dpkg-vendor.
Example:
$ cat debian/install.in
__BAR__
then in your debian/rules
override_dh_install:
if dpkg-vendor--derives-from ubuntu ; then \
sed s|__BAR__|<whatever>| debian/install.in >debian/install \
else
sed s|__BAR__|<you-like>| debian/install.in >debian/install \
fi
dh_install
Of course, cleaning debian/install in the clean target is a
good idea too.
If you need to remove a single line, just don't do that, instead
replace __BAR__ by nothing.
There must of course be many other ways to do that.
Cheers,
Thomas
